Bayern Munich captain Philipp Lahm has urged his team-mates to be aggressive against St Pauli in their clash on Saturday.

The German giants are currently two points ahead of Hannover in the third and final Champions League spot and travel to Hamburg tomorrow.

Bayern have won just five league encounters on the road, losing as many and drawing six, and Lahm wants them to alter their record in a positive way.

“We’ve always needed a few minutes to settle in away games,” said the Germany international defender, according to Bayern’s official website. “That has to change. This is our biggest target for the weekend: get stuck in right from the off, and show aggression right from the start. We’ve dropped quite enough points in recent weeks.”

Defender Holger Badstuber added: “The team has completely taken on board the fact that there can’t be any more slip-ups.

“We have to concentrate as hard as we can, and kill the game as quickly as possible. That’ll silence the crowd, and everyone will know who’s boss.”
